THE CONARD-PYLE CO. - Siar Rose Growers + West Grove, Pa. 
Hardy Hybrid Perpetuals 

Hybrid Perpetuals give excellent cut-flowers 
rarely excelled by any other class in size, fullness, 
and wonderful old-fashioned Rose fragrance, a 
quality that is often Jacking in other garden Roses. 
They stand the extreme cold of the North and the 
heat of the South equally well. 
Their outburst of blooms in June is much more 
impressive than that of any other class. Many 
flower only once, but by properly cutting back the 
bloom-shoots to two strong eyes as soon as the 
June flowers are past, there will be a recurrence of 
bloom in the fall. Varieties like Frau Karl Druschki 
and Druschkit Rubra bloom intermittently, while 
President Briand, S. M. Gustave V, and Mme. 
Albert Barbier may be expected to flower at brief 
intervals. 
The best hybridizers of the world have been 
producing new varieties of more refined form and 
more delicate tints than the older “June Roses.’’ 
A condensed list of these new and standard kinds 
follows. See page 26 for some of the new Hybrid 
Perpetuals in natural colors. 

* ANNIE CRAWFORD. Pink. Vigorous-grow- 
ing and an almost continuous bloomer in bright 
pink with deeper veins; sweetly perfumed. Blooms 
in clusters, but if disbudded, the remaining buds 
will attain very large size. Has long stems, excel- 
lent for cutting. Specially adapted to form hedges, 
or as a mate to Gruss an Teplitz. $1 each. 
*DRUSCHKI RUBRA. Red. Illustrated in 
color on page 26. A hybrid of Frau Karl Druschkt 
and American Beauty. Bud and bloom have the 
same form and size as Frau Karl Druschki. Color is 
a subdued crimson lightening to scarlet around the 
petal edges. American Beauty has transmitted its 
delightful perfume. The plant habit is very similar 
to Frau Karl Druschki although, perhaps, not quite 
as vigorous, but its foliage is better. There ts the 
same recurrence of bloom. A notable advent in the 
Rose world. $2 each. 















ie Karl peischk The most famous white Rose in existence 
*FRAU KARL DRUSCHKI. White. See illus- 
tration. Universally acclaimed as one of the best 
white Roses in existence. It is snow-white. Its 
buds are unusually long for its class and are often 
shaded pink, but they open mto immense and 
perfectly double flowers often more than 4 inches 
across, and with waxy petals that are very durable, 
but, unfortunately, scentless. If disbudded, the 
flowers which are allowed to mature will prove an 
immense satisfaction. The plant is a strong and 
vigorous grower, making branches from six to eight 
feet high ma season. It does best with but moderate 
pruning, and it has the admirable habit of blooming 
almost continually when once established, so that 
it is dependable for white Roses from early June 
until frost. Care should be taken to check its 
tendency to mildew. Many candidates for its place 
have appeared, only to increase the continued 
popularity of this great variety. $1 each. 
*GLOIRE DE CHEDANE-GUINOISSEAU. 
Crimson-red. Long buds and open, full, large 
blooms, perfectly formed and deliciously fragrant. 
Color is vermilion-crimson, turning to pure crimson- 
a 
red. The bush is compact and not so 
exuberant In growth as some other 
Hybrid Perpetuals. In form, the bloom 
is ideal and it lasts long when cut. 
Produces prize-winning blooms. $1 ea. 
* HENRY NEVARD. New. Ilius- 
trated -in color on page 26. A deep red, 
fragrant Rose with large, perfect 
blooms combined with the lovely 
foliage and excellent habit of the 
famous Frau Karl Druschki. $1.50 
each. 
* LOUISE CRETTE. Flower 
snow-white with creamy center, 
extra large, very double, of perfect 
form, opening well; some fragrance. 
Growth vigorous; almost thornless. 
One of the finest and largest white 
Roses with more petals than Frau 
Karl Druschki. An almost contin- 
uous bloomer when once established. 
$1 each. 
* MAGNA CHARTA. True rose- 
pink in its clearest shade, the 
blooms break forth freely m_ enor- 
mous, heavy trusses. The flowers

of the old-time Roses. Makes a 
strong, erect growth. $1 each.
